Latkes and sour-cream for hanuccah :)

My family makes pasta from scratch on the 25th, and homemade bread on New Years'. I also love to make and eat latkes during Chanukkah.

chocolate cake

Cheesy potatoes! I am a huge cheese fan, so these are a must on the holidays (and every other day if you ask me)

Eggnog

onion roasted potatoes

Caramel Apple cookies! They're small, very gooey, and taste like cinnamon and apples.

I love gingerbread =)

Cheesecake and my grandmother's stuffing

Not necessarily a food item as such, but it goes in the mouth!

Baileys Hot Chocolate finished off with some whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles!

Ah today is fudge, peanut butter chocolate chip cookies and ginger bread day! I do love to bake!

You all are making me hungry!

Okay, guys, let me tell you what. Dark chocolate pumpkin bread. I just learned the recipe this year from the lovely Minimalist Baker's Everyday Cooking. I modified it to have more flax seed, and it just holds together incredible. It's moist, perfectly sweet, hearty-textured. The flavors are indulgent yet seasonal! You can make french toast with this stuff. Pick up the book some time, check it out!

I love Christmas turkey dinner with all the trimmings! All the veggies. All the deserts.

We usually have to be rolled away from the table

I enjoy mashed sweet potatoes at our holiday dinners, but I'm most fond of the cookies my aunt makes. She swears there are no addicting drugs added in the ingredients but I almost don't believe her :)

I really love the holiday cookies!! One of my favorite dishes at any holiday is green bean casserole. LoL. And the way my grandmother used to make her sweet potatoes....was just heavenly.

I've always been obsessed with those chocolate wreaths..

For Christmas Eve my boyfriend's family makes the best pierogies ever and for Christmas my family has a wonderful parsley barley soup!

Latkes!

And gingersnap-type cookies. And it's not a food, but hot mulled cider.

Cheesecake and milkshakes are those favorites of mine I get on the rare occasion
